Week in brief

Entra ID FIDO2 registration may offer passkey creation on another device

The week contains one Entra ID Message Center notice. It describes a changed FIDO2 security key registration experience in which users may receive an operating system- or browser-generated prompt to create a passkey on another device, such as a phone or tablet; some users may see a QR code for that flow. The notice does not establish a preview or general-availability milestone, a policy change, or a required administrator action.

  • Microsoft Entra ID users registering a FIDO2 security key may see a prompt generated by their operating system or browser to create a passkey on another device, including a phone or tablet. In some cases, a QR code facilitates the option. This is a registration-experience change, not evidence of a separate product launch or availability announcement.

For Entra administrators

The concrete impact is to the user experience during FIDO2 registration. Administrators and support teams should be aware that a passkey-on-another-device prompt or QR code may be expected. The supplied evidence identifies no configuration change, migration, retirement, or mandatory action.
